A NEW Costa Coffee store will soon open in a former Bargain Booze in Tong.

The company already has planning permission to alter the shopfront of the building at 425 Tong Street, and has now been granted permission for change of use from a shop to a cafe.

Planning officers said the business would “support the function of the district centre.”

The shop will open 7am-6pm on Monday to Saturday and 9am-5pm on Sundays.
